Heath,

It works like a charm! The Alerts/Actions-part of WUHU is powerful
beyond my wildest expectations. I now have a second station throwing
weather data in and it is sending this data every five minutes. :D

Thank you very much for pointing me to a right direction.

Now that I have it running this way, how about having it send data
every minute instead of five? Do you have any suggestion how I do
that?
